| undefined slope | vertical line; equation on has x equals a number; x=3 |
| system of equations | a set of more than one equation with the same variables |
| point of intersection | the solution to a system of equations; the ordered pair that make both equations true |
| proportional | y divided by x is constant; graph contains the origin; y=kx |
| non-proportional | y divided by x is not constant; graph has a positive or negative y intercept; y=mx+b |
| slope intercept form | the equation of a straight line in the form of y=mx+b |
| y-intercept | the point where a line crosses the y-axis; the y-value when x is zero |
